## Resource

Iowa’s 2027 recruiting class sits at fifty-seventh nationally, but the Hawkeyes are quietly building depth with a focus on overlooked talent and player development. After setbacks with offensive linemen, they’re targeting key additions — including running back Caleb Mattison, wide receiver transfers Tony Diaz and Evan James, and EDGE Malachi Booker to join Jerrence Knoblock and Tommy Riordan. Brayden Parks could anchor a promising defensive line alongside Bariyus Allen, while linebacker looks set with Kyler Van Maanen, Braylon Bingham, and Gavin Stecker. Cornerback remains a priority with Deshaun Lee’s departure, making Raheem Floyd and Brandon Sherrard prime targets — and Monsanna Torbert Jr. could be a game-changer if secured. At safety, experience may trump high school recruits, with portal additions already in place and Brawley Tuitupou from Utah as a longshot option.
